Race-Based Activism Is Changing College Campuses [PSMag.com]

 

A survey of college and university presidents conducted earlier this year suggests that campus activists are making a difference. The American Council on Education asked 567 presidents about their experience with and response to activists on campus organized around racial diversity and justice.

Almost half (47 percent) of presidents at four-year institutions said that such activism was occurring on their campuses and that the dialogue about such matters had increased (41 percent). The majority (86 percent) had met with student organizers more than once and more than half (55 percent) said that the β€œracial climate” on campus was more of a priority than it had been just a few years ago. The trends for two-year institutions were weaker, but in the same direction.
